2 rolls of overlay. These photos are of the #1 roll. (Following post will have #2 roll photos). The photos show a small scratch which is the only one.
Size is 66”x14” and the price is $85 plus the ride.

I got to check that to see if it matches the door panels on my 1972 Monaco.

Any ideas as to the part number relates to?

Sorry I don’t know the application. I tried google and nothing came up. Do you think it’s used on the outside panels? I remember seeing a ‘68 Newport with something similar.

The part number would make me think ‘67/8ish.

I spend some time with the '68 Chrysler parts book. This is the wood grain overlay for '68 Chrysler Town & Country Wagons and likely is the same for the wood grain sided '68 Chrysler Newport coupes and convertibles with that rare option, the name of which escapes me.

These really need to go to someone who is restoring one of these wagons who can get them copied and get new material made that is a duplicate of the factory pattern. You may want to post a new for sale listing now that these have been identified. If no one else steps up to the plate to buy these, contact me and I may buy them to preserve them. Please keep them rolled up in the boxes.

Judging by the size, I'm thinking tailgate.

Nope - same part number for all body panels per the factory parts book.

Thanks for this information. I have photos of that ‘68 Newport and passed up the opportunity to buy it.
